Read any of the many studies that have been published and reported in media (example, example) across the globe over the last few years. There are other threads on here with further links.No offense but I find that incredible. I'm in the market for a stove to replace an open fire & if this is true I need to see the source & perhaps reconsider.
Some studies show burning wood is way, way worse!IMO even an open fire is not going to be equivalent to smoking 50 cigarettes a day.
